Failed to activate Greenpages Sample in Virgo 3.0.2https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/328839/843776/#msg_843776
we are trying to do a little proof of technology with Virgo and I am stuck getting greenpages to run in Virgo. I downloaded the greenpages master branch from the git repository because the previous versions did not compile.

I've put all dependent jar's into the repository and the grenpages jar into pickup. When I do I startup -clean I get the following exception:

I have to admit that I am extremely new to Virgo so please forgive me if this is my fault ...

com.springsource.javax.persistence-1.0.0.jar sits in the repository/ext directory and so I would not expect this error ... but this could be naive

Thanks for any help ...]]>Daniel Scholz2012-04-13T11:02:13-00:00Re: Failed to activate Greenpages Sample in Virgo 3.0.2https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/328839/843987/#msg_843987

... but the manifest of the jpa part of the downloaded zip did not have javax.persistence in the the import package section ... now I have my green pages ... ]]>Daniel Scholz2012-04-14T02:50:22-00:00Re: Failed to activate Greenpages Sample in Virgo 3.0.2https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/328839/846610/#msg_846610

Did you try using Greenpages 2.4.0.RELEASE (before you started building it yourself from the git repo)?]]>Glyn Normington2012-04-16T08:29:58-00:00Re: Failed to activate Greenpages Sample in Virgo 3.0.2https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/328839/848613/#msg_848613
... I downloaded the version flagged with 2.5.0 from here -> git.eclipse.org/c/virgo/org.eclipse.virgo.sample-greenpages.git/snapshot/org.eclipse.virgo.sample-greenpages-master.zip

and this Zip has the following content in the JPA Manifest after invoking Maven:

http://www.eclipse.org/virgo/samples/ and that's the one we want users to work with.

Please could you tell me how you found git.eclipse.org/c/virgo/org.eclipse.virgo.sample-greenpages.git/snapshot/org.eclipse.virgo.sample-greenpages-master.zip since I would like to avoid other users stumbling upon that, e.g. if we've accidentally provided such a link somewhere in our docs or wiki.

Please accept my apologies if this was simply too confusing! I just added a file IMPORTANT-INFORMATION-FOR-USERS.txt to the git repo which will hopefully head off users in future.]]>Glyn Normington2012-04-18T12:21:32-00:00Re: Failed (Hibernate JPA) to activate Greenpages Sample in Virgo 3.0.2https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/328839/848752/#msg_848752
Thanks.

git.eclipse.org/c/virgo/org.eclipse.virgo.sample-greenpages.git/snapshot/org.eclipse.virgo.sample-greenpages-master.zip appears to be simple a zip of the Greenpages git repository. The Greenpages zip which we publish is available at ... and that's the one we want users to work with.

I hope the distinction is now clear: the git repo is for committers and the published zip is what we intend users to work with.

Okay it's my pleasure ... it started with the fact that the maven build with 2.4.0 of greenpages did not work and so I searched for problems and found Bug 372640 which looked like the problem I had ... and in there it says it has been fixed ... it then has been easy to traverse from the Wiki to the source repository and pick the zip ... ... sorry for the confusion ...
